GTA 6 selfie filter
GTA 6 selfie filter: keep the selfie, change the world behind you
Say “keep it a selfie: the arm’s-length angle, the wide-angle phone lens and the framing” and the result still reads as a selfie, with your arm in the frame. Then replace the background. A bedroom became an art deco beach street and a kitchen became a beach at sunset. Unofficial and not affiliated with Rockstar Games.
Every edit needs a paid plan. Plans start at $19/month.
How do I make a GTA 6 style selfie?
- 01
Upload an arm’s-length selfie
The outstretched arm and the wide phone lens are what make it read as a selfie. Keep them.
- 02
Say “keep it a selfie”
Name the angle, the lens and the framing, then the new background.
- 03
Name what must stay
List hair colour, beard, glasses and clothes in the prompt. In our runs everything we named stayed; what we left out could change.
Two selfies, two new backdrops
Every result starts from a synthetic photo or from a text prompt alone. Open “Prompt we ran” under a result for the exact prompt, or copy the prompt card and swap in your own details.
1.Bedroom to beach street
The outstretched arm and wide angle stayed; the bedroom became art deco hotels, palms and the beach. Curly hair, beard and hoodie stayed.
Prompt we ran
Redraw this photo in the style of Grand Theft Auto VI key art: a hand-painted digital illustration with bold black ink outlines, cel-shaded colours and hard-edged shadows, in a hot sun-bleached palette of magenta, coral, orange and turquoise. Keep it a selfie: the arm's-length angle, the wide-angle phone lens and the framing. Replace the background with a sunny modern Miami-style beach city with pastel art deco hotels, palm trees and neon signs. Keep his likeness: curly black hair, short beard, dark grey hoodie and slight smile. No text or logos.
Suggested model: Nano Banana 2.1
2.Kitchen to beach
Same framing and arm, now on a beach at sunset. Wavy dark blonde hair, green T-shirt and smile stayed.
Prompt we ran
Redraw this photo in the style of Grand Theft Auto VI key art: a hand-painted digital illustration with bold black ink outlines, cel-shaded colours and hard-edged shadows, in a hot sun-bleached palette of magenta, coral, orange and turquoise. Keep it a selfie: the arm's-length angle, the wide-angle phone lens and the framing. Replace the kitchen with a sunny beach and palm trees. Keep her likeness: shoulder-length wavy dark blonde hair, faded green T-shirt and smile. No text or logos.
Suggested model: Nano Banana 2.1
Keep it recognisable, and keep it yours
- Name what must stay: hair colour, beard, glasses, eye colour and clothes. What we named stayed in our runs; what we did not name could change.
- Expect the ink lines to sharpen faces and add a few years. GPT Image 2.5 drew softer faces where we compared it.
- Check what the model added: extra people, signs with invented words, real car badges. Ask again with “no text, logos or brand badges”.
- Do not add the game’s logo, title or characters, and do not present a result as official artwork.
- Only restyle photos of yourself or of people who agreed. An illustration of a real person is still that person.
Which model to use
Every model runs in the same app and draws from the same credits. The table shows web app prices; the credits under each result are what that API run was charged.
| Model | Credits | On Starter | Use it for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nano Banana 2.11K | 9 | $0.171 | Most results on these pages: holds the ink outlines and the palette. 14 credits at 2K for wallpapers and banners. |
| GPT Image 2.5high quality | 11 | $0.209 | The buttons on these pages open it with Detail on, which keeps the price and takes about twice as long. Softer, more painterly faces; our comparison runs, made with Detail off, are on the profile picture, portrait and character portrait pages. |
| Muse Imageone size, about 2.5 MP | 2 | $0.038 | The cheapest way to try a prompt before you spend more. |

Frequently asked questions
Can I keep my real background in a selfie?
Yes: say “keep the kitchen exactly as it is” instead of naming a new place. The GTA 6 filter guide shows that.
Does it work on front-camera selfies?
Both of ours are front-camera, arm’s-length selfies. The mirrored look of a front camera stays as it is in the photo.
Is this an official GTA 6 tool?
No. It is an unofficial, fan-style look made with general image models from a prompt. AI Media Studio is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Rockstar Games or Take-Two Interactive. Grand Theft Auto and GTA are their trademarks, named here only to describe an art style. Leave the game’s logo, title and characters out of what you make.
Is there a GTA 6 button or preset?
Yes. The GTA 6 preset library opens Studio with an editable image or video prompt and the model already picked. The buttons on this page open the image composer with the look typed in, and you add what must stay. The prompts on this page are the ones we ran.
How much does it cost? Is there a free option?
One picture costs 2 credits on Muse Image, 9 on Nano Banana 2.1 at 1K or 11 on GPT Image 2.5 in the web app. AI Media Studio has no free tier. Every edit needs a paid plan. Plans start at $19/month.
